“I love Siduri wine,” said Terry Kanowsky. “They make some of the best pinot noirs. It’s a fun winery to visit.”

Kanowsky said the event is an important fundraiser for the Boys & Girls Club.

“The club needs all the support they can get,” she said. “This event helps keep some of the club programs in place.”

Adam and Diana Lee, owners and winemakers of Siduri will be offering some of their best wine at the event, which will also feature Siduri’s sister label, Novy wines.

Leading the tasting will be Adam Lee. Lee is from Texas, with a background in wine retailing. The Lees launched the Siduri label with a 1994 vintage and soon gained a following for their pinot noir wines.

“We appreciate the Kanowskys for hosting this event,” said Jim Ventress, chief professional officer of the Boys & Girls Club of SCV. “There are a couple of thousand kids that depend on us to be there. This is a fun event that helps us keep up the quality of our programs.”

Carl Kanowsky said the event will also feature one-of-a-kind items donated by the Lees which includes private tastings and a complete flight of all of the Pinot Noirs currently offered by Siduri in a special presentation.

“These are items you can’t get anywhere else,” said Carl Kanowsky.

Kanowsky said he is hoping the event will equal the $26,000 raised from last year’s Baldwin event.

“We love wine, and we love the Boys & Girls Club,” said Carl Kanowsky. Two of the Kanowskys three sons attended the club.
